Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Cam Little set a new NFL record on Sunday when he kicked a 68-yard field goal to help his team beat the Las Vegas Raiders 30-29.

Heading into the first half, the Jaguars were down 0-6. However, Little was sent “out to attempt a 68-yard field goal to cut the deficit in half going into halftime. Little looked comfortable as he booted the attempt through the uprights to set a record for the longest field goal in NFL history,” Sports Spectrum reported.

After the game, Little told the press what was going through his mind as he watched the ball sail 68 yards through the pylons.

“You go so far back and that ball takes a long time for it to get there,” he explained, “so you don’t want to celebrate too early before the kick goes in. Once I saw it clear the crossbar, obviously that’s when I knew it was good.”

Little would end his Sunday 3-for-3 on field goals as well as extra points.

“I feel great,” he told the Jaguars media team on the field after the game. “Thank You, Lord, for giving me that opportunity.”

In the post-game press conference, Little spoke highly of his teammates and coaches and credited them for his success.

“This organization — from top to bottom, from front office to coaching staff to players — has instilled so much confidence in me through adversity, really for the first time in my career, that I’ve faced,” he shared. “So, I think when I really sit back and think about it, they let me know how much confidence they have in me, it’s forever indebted [me] to this place.

“They know how hard I work. They know how much this means to me. For them to go out there when I’m obviously not performing my best and stand on the table for me is something I’ll forever be indebted to this organization,” he added.

Last season, Little hit a 70-yard field goal in a preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Unfortunately, that kick didn’t count for the record books, but he doesn’t care because he knows he’s out there to serve someone greater than him.

“As I started getting into more pressure situations where I had 60-70,000 people watching me, I knew that, whether I made the kick or missed the kick, I knew that God’s will was gonna prevail,” Little said. “I knew that I was gonna be OK. It’s already been decided if I made or missed the kick.

“… Regardless if I make or miss that kick, I know I’m out there for a bigger purpose, and that’s to serve my Creator,” he declared.

The Jaguars will need Little to continue his clutch kicks as they currently fight for a spot in the playoffs. Jacksonville is on the road this week as they face the Houston Texans on Sunday at 1:00 p.m. ET.
